    That worked perfectly... This stupid Catalyst Center...

    Thanks, I'll try that. I only checked with the Catalyst Center and it confirmed that it should be the most recent version but that ist 16.3.2.

    Oih guys, I just started playing DOOM and tweaked a little in the settings. After changing OpenGL to Vulkan and restarting the game. it starts black and stays like that... (Maybe because of my slow FX4100... But an upgrade is on its way!) Does anyone now how to reset the settings? The directory C:\Users\"USERNAME"\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM\base in which I can find the DOOMConfig.cfg doesn't contain any grafical settings to reset/tweak... Maybe someone can upload the original file or something... Steam can't find anything and I don't want to reload everything of the 50GByte yet. I would be glad to be able to play further than the first level! Thanks in advance! DarkJShadow

    My room only allows a short projector to be placed... The ceiling is so weak... Would be nice to have one!

    It was right after the first sidequest for the foreigners. At first there was no issue but after restarting the game a few days after, the frames dropped. The mission before even included explosion and a lot of snow and I didn't have any issues...

    I guess that it is due to the fact, that the people have seen so many demos with the older models or the Oculus. The main benefit of the Vive is definitely the ability to move and walk around. The testers are all promoting it a bit, too. So they'll show the one thing the vive is much better than the Oculus and that is while not sitting. I bet that the normal sitting headmovement tracking will work, it does so even while walking. Since the Vive does support the open Steam VR, that will be no problem. Even for the "exclusive" content of the Oculus, since we are on PC, there'll be cracks or mods to use the Vive on Oculus only titles, too. I expect the first VR models will be buggy at first. But I am good at googleing (or as others say I am good with technology...), so that hopefully won't be that much of an issue for me.

    I just did a cleanup on my system as I got a new SSD with my GPU. The card is factory overclocked by Sapphire, as far as I know. I didn't change anything. But since then there was an installement of the AMD Gaming Center or something. I'll test it later, whether that has an impact on it or not. I also did a complete reboot of the system several times. I play via keyboard and mouse. The game itself doesn't stutter with the audio. It just had constant 22fps on every graphics setting and only gets to 28/30fps at the lowest setting. Even my old HD 7850 could do better... Thanks for your help so far! Maybe in some time it will be solved...

    But you think there is no other reason beside the CPU, that the frames dropped so suddenly for no apparent reason?
  9. DarkJShadow
    It doesn't have PCIe 3.0 though, but that should only impact it slightly. (And should be recognized at the other games, too.)

    I have an M5A97 and a Mugen Scythe.

    So you would say only changing the CPU could change the fps performance? I ran Unigine, Witcher 3, Shadow of Mordor and ARK (which is really bad balanced - just to see) and everywhere it ran pretty well (+45fps at high settings.). I know the new Tomb Raider is quite demanding, but since it performed better under same conditions (I started a new game just for comparisson) I would assume there is something else wrong. Could be the CPU, yes. But I would have to wait for my next paycheck to get another one... (Would go for an 8 Core AM3+ then...)

    Like I said, I know that. I loose approximately around 10 fps or less for only having that one. But the thing is it ran at 45fps at the best settings a few days ago for the few hours playing. The CPU could actually handle it quite well. Suddenly it should be to less?
  13. DarkJShadow
    The driver was updated, yes. But only after the Issue occured. So I would assume it is not the reason...
  14. DarkJShadow
    Like I said, I could play it at the best settings at 45fps constantly. Witcher 3 runs at 45fps in Ultra settings constantly, too. So I would say the CPU should be enough. (Not said, that it would push the performance by having a better one. ) The performance only suddenly dropped. That's what's mocking me...

    Hello guys, as I started playing the game today I recognised a really stuttering performance and tested the fps settings. With fraps I have ~23fps constantly at the best preset settings. But as I do lower the settings it always stays at the 23fps or below framerate (at the lowest it is around 28 fps). I have a Quadcore with 3,9GHz and a R9 390X and 24Gigs of Ram. I'm playing on a 2048x1152 resolution. The game should run fluid at over 40 fps at the best settings at least. The day I got it, it performed at that performance and I did not change anything whatsoever... Other games work fine and at constant 60fps (e.g. Witcher 3) I restarted the PC, reinstalled the game and nothing changed... Do any of you have an idea what I could do? I mostly bought the game for looks (not only though ), but this laggy gameplay is not really fun, if you actually should have the right hardware to not have to experience that...

    JBOStuff AMD FX 4100 Radeon R9 390X 8GB 2x 4GB and 2x 8GB at 1155MHz Nothing overclocked for the test But then after the last software update from AMD:
  17. DarkJShadow
    I would say the R9 380 is pretty much the top one as for right now. At amazon.com there's one for 199$. That is sure too. We'll see what happens.
  18. DarkJShadow
    That is also my only concern. I tried it too, and the pixels are still noticable. But if they go for a even higher resolution, 90Hz would be almost impossible with an affordable rig. I bet they would've been able to put a better screen inside, considering the current cellphone resolutions for a similiar price. But performancewise I am fine with their decision (for I only have a 390X).
  19. DarkJShadow
    Mmh. Sounds right. Maybe I was too focused on the news...
  20. DarkJShadow
    I didn't know where to put it best. Displays? Peripherals? And since it is more of a new subject I assumed it would be news related. But if you have a better option let me know, instead of only writing wrong forum.

    I have to say that I'm actually hyped quite a bit. Imagining visiting ancient places or monuments, or even snapping 360° photos myself while travelling seems also like a step into the future. Gamingwise I backed the indigogo campagne of Hover Junkers (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/hover-junkers#/). But I think there will be many more games following.

    Helllo fellow Linustechtipsforumfriends, I just preordered the Vive and wanted to know more about the generell opinion here in the forum. Whether you preordered or want to aquire one later... Something like that! Looking forward to VR!
  23. DarkJShadow
    Depending what you need. The value of the 7970 is a little higher in my opinion. It has almost as much power as a GTX 960 but is considerably older. So all in all it is quit equal.
  24. DarkJShadow
    I wouldn't say that so quickly. It took several years to get to this point of standard and in my opinion the companies will focus more on putting out content and optimizing the system. Even if they develop new versions, the only really usefull or necessary thing would be a higher resolution (to see the pixel-grid even less). That would lead to a drop in performance and hence most people would rather stay with the older device. Positiontrackingwise the vive is really top notch and as everything is open, maybe some upradeable controllers will be published (for hand gestures or similiar). So realistically you would only have to upgrade the controllers for a maximum of 200$ (really high estimation). My only concern would be, that I would loose interest rather soon. But with all the titles anounced, that seems to be no problem so far.

    Don't argue with a fanboy. I would go for the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Linus recommended. It has a great value and is suitable for gaming.
